What a great year. I could go on and on. I guess what's what this blog is, after all. My journal of meanderings. :)Anyhoo.... I hit my 'body weight back squat' target; actually did 165#. I did not get the pull up. I am still quite happy with progress. On to 2016!

My food tracker reminded me that if "every day were like today" I'd gain 10 pounds in five weeks.I don't think that's the Christmas spirit. :)I love "My Fitness Pal", and for sure they don't adopt that social/casual style that some of the brands I love do.... but would it have killed them to say like "Don't worry; there's always tomorrow". or "Don't look; you don't want to know"?

I made my target of body-weight squat a week ago. So... I was early! So last night we did a run to hit my 1RM. And... it's 165#... here is the video. I failed out at 170 # (not posting that vid!!), and am pleased that I saw it through!

Driving to work in the dark, and back in the dark. Summer is really , really gone. But I had such a GREAT summer, that winter seems less oppressive.I had a great summer because we were out, active, enjoying the outdoors all the time.We were out, and active, because I really learned to like cycling and we have some great trails.I was able to learn to like cycling because it was work, but not too hard, and really actually enjoyable!It wasn't so hard because I am fit!I got fit because I joined GOODLIFE and got a trainer and did the work.So... THANKS GOODLIFE , for the GREAT SUMMER!

Yep. today in yoga I was told to move the ball forward, and back, forward and back.... like I was moving a big ball of chi. 'cause that is a reference that helps. Love this girl; her voice is amazing, and she has a great way about her. But every class, there is one yoga-ism that makes me go "huh?"

On December 16th, I will find out my 1RM for barbell squat. One of my 2 targets for 2015 was to squat my weight, and I am within a few pounds @ 5 reps, so theoretically (mental state not withstanding!), I can do it. So we set the date to go from 'theoretically can' to 'done'. While we are at it (getting 155#), we are going to add in 5# increments and see where my current ceiling is. Probably 160, but who knows, maybe I can even do 165#.

Either way, we'll find out in 9 days! The Chin up is a ways off yet. But not impossible.

Yesterday I felt weird because I was dis-interested in food. That's like being disinterested in shoes. Or kittens. But I figured it was just a one-off.But I feel that way again today.I was thinking of going this direction - SOYLENT. But then I might feel even worse than disinterested.I wanted the relationship to change. But not this much. Booo!Well, let's see tomorrow. Tonight is a lovely Italian joint for a work event, so maybe it'll re-pique my appetite.
